==1971 F6==
The '''Kawasaki F6''' was a 125cc [[dual-purpose motorcycle]] manufactured by [[Kawasaki]] from 1971 through 1974 with the general overall look of the [[Kawasaki F4]] and [[Kawasaki F5]]. It was a very good [[Enduro]] motorcycle with it's higher [[horsepower]] for its class, enclosed [[carburetor]], and ground clearance.
